And a bit of fly lady. we're in the livng room this week.

On this rare occasion we are in Zone 5 for a full week! Let's take advantage of that and start with a 27 Fling Boogie. Grab your bag and put on some of your favorite music and start flinging. For those of you who are new to FlyLady a 27 Fling Boogie is where you get a bag, and go through the room and pick up 27 tings you no longer need or want. Today we will focus on trash, and getting it out of this zone. So, grab your bag and fling 27 pieces of trash, and I can bet this will take less then 15 minutes. You can also count this as working on your Paper Clutter Habit.

starnac

Paper clutter is my main enemy too. I never really know what to do with it

Good luck today Pippi. Hope that the outcome is what you want it to be xx

The sugar cube castle is my favourite.

Dark nights suck by the way. I didn't even get to play with my saw.

starnac

That's a bit pants of her. Did you ask her why?

Pippilongstocking

hey starnac they're in the process of splitting up some parts of the estate so its to help form the 'new' department next year when it all forms. She's a whirlwind so its hard to do much but listen.

I spoke to OH about it all and he said he thought it was positive. Might actually mean I get a contract one day......

(I fell of my chair laughing)

Hey ho - there's worst things happen at sea. I'll write up how fabulous I am and what an amazing job I do.

Today fly lady says - get into the living room and sparkle your lights and lamps, check you have spare bulbs too and if you don't (shakes fist) put them on the list for shopping.

She said it nicer.

Getting sorted for work. Did 15412 steps between 10 and 4 yesterday. I need to reduce my eating as I'm clearly pretty active.

And the dogs had the nerve to ask for a walk after work - lol
